R Truth, carrying the WWE championship, arrived in a limo. Josh Mathews tried to get comments from Truth but said he’s got a big party and told Mathews to join him. Truth came across Eve and invited her to the party. She said that she doesn’t know who he is anymore. Truth said that no one knows who he is anymore and got angry. He said he was going to dedicate his win tonight to all the Little Jimmys and the Little Janes.

Miz was interviewed and asked whether he thought he could defeat Alex Riley. Miz said that Riley is a shelter dog that Miz saved from the NXT reject pile. He said that if people don’t think that he can beat Riley, that just shows how far people think he’s fallen in the last month. He said that Riley was just a glorified bag carrier and tonight, he was going to show the world why he is awesome.

WWE upgraded their production tonight, by the way. There’s more usage of a crane camera for hard camera shots and closeups, even running it around the ring across one side and then turning the corner and up the other side. It’s a nice usage of the camera and provided some good shots.

The Miz vs. Alex Riley

Miz began trash talking Riley. He was holding the Money in the Bank briefcase, so I’m guessing that comes into play later.

Outside of the ring, Riley shoved Miz into the barrier and then into the ringside table.

He went to use it but the referee grabbed it.

Riley grabbed Miz for his leaping DDT and nailed him, getting the pin.

Your winner, Alex Riley!

Another very good match. They had the chance to make Riley tonight and took it. Miz lost nothing in the loss and Riley went to the next level. Really good from bell to bell as they told a story, got Riley over as a strong take no nonsense babyface by nailing Cole and gave him a clean him in his hometown.

Two matches in and this is a fun show.
